Lola's first trial

Basenji Training
  • GO LOLAAAAAAAAAAA!

    She sure photographs well. If I didn't know any better I'd think she pauses in the "flying" position.

  • Congrats! Way to go Lola! Good luck tomorrow. It's addicting isn't it? :)

    Beck is a nice guy, Roxie got to run with him at her first trial this summer too!

  • Congrats!! Looks like Lola has lots of fun running :D Beautiful pics!

  • Very cool! Congratulations!

    My B's also love coursing, but unfortunately we have to drive about 300 km to get to the next Sighthound Association which offers free Coursings. Currently I am thinking about buying my own "Rabbit in a Suitcase" to allow my dogs coursing at the beach….

    Regards,

  • That is so awesome! Congrats! You must be super proud of your lil girl.

  • I love the pictures! Thanks for sharing! She is so graceful when running.

    I am jelous just looking at how much fun she is having as we have to wait until May or when all this darn MN snow is gone :-)!

  • Congratulations Lola - hope you have many more wins!

  • Yay! Way to go Lola!

  • Thanks for all of the congratulations! Today was our third day, and she had 2 more great runs! She was the only basenji, so she got 1st & BOB again just for completing her 2 runs, but she had a TON of fun & her scores were great again!!!
    I took Booger & let him do a practice run. He's a huge flake, so I didn't want to pay to enter him. He ran a few yards, got bored & started running around. I ran with him to help him find it again, and he chased it a bit more until he found a tree that needed to be peed on. He had a huge grin on his face the whole time though so it was worth it just to run with him & see him having such fun!

    And Mauigirl…. Lola flies or sleeps. Those are her only two modes. Haha.

  • I made a Photobucket album of this weekend. There are pictures of Beck & Lola & one picture of Beck's new puppy sister, Bon-Bon (her real name is pronounced Bonmee, but I don't know how to spell it)

    My Basenjis have always loved radishes… I would start them young with them... just tossing them on the floor whole... they would roll and toss them around the floor and then finally biting into them... a couple of days of that, they were hooked... makes a great treat... but I did make sure they were a bit on the sweet side then the "hot" side

    Actually I have bought the muzzles in Austria at that shop: http://www.sofahund.at And yes, the dogs can open their mouths while running. This is the reason why I searched to find these muzzles. They also have the plastic-coated wire muzzles with the wire across the head. Regards, Esther

    That was very nice for a first try. She will improve greatly as she becomes more seasoned. Beautiful little gal. You're doing well with her. Heck, just getting a Basenji to do all that is a triumph. I thought it was cute how she went around to greet the judges. Such a little ambassador.:D

    It was 2000ft. The finish judge commented that maybe we should only have gone halfway-1000 ft. Next time I'll run her with a more experienced dog and on a shorter practice. And like I said, Mama's girl and all!
